are new calls received.
If you have a voice mailbox service with your telephone company, another
indicator marked NEW MESSAGE will flash to alert you to dial your
telephone company to check your new messages.
The NEW MESSAGE indicator also monitors the unit’s situation. When the

the indicator is flashing quickly, it means the phone is ringing. If it is not
ringing and the light is flashing, the unit has experienced a power outage.
MESSAGE WAITING
This unit’s Message Waiting Detection is for both FSK and Stutter Tone
Systems.
IF YOUR SERVICE IS FSK:

appear on the display for 20 seconds when a message waiting signal
(on) from the Central Office is received.

IF YOU ARE IN AN AREA WHERE AN FSK
SIGNAL IS NOT AVAILABLE:

stutter dial tone every time you hang up
or each time a call goes unanswered.
The NEW MESSAGE indicator will flash
when there is a message waiting.
2. You may experience some delay in
seeing the NEW MESSAGE indicator
light up even though there are
messages in your mail box. This delay
is due to regulatory matters and does
not indicate a problem with the unit.
This unit may not be activated or
deactivated under certain conditions. For
example, when you retrieve your message
from an outside phone (not your own
telephone number), the NEW MESSAGE
indicator may not be canceled when you
return home. If you experience this
situation, pick up the receiver and hang up.
The NEW MESSAGE indicator will cancel
